I am new to the world on elf! But I was just wondering what the side boot boards are? If indeed such a thing? When I recently got elf for restoration, I found this items in my boot and at first thought they were like rusty panels that had been cut out of the car.. The main boot board is not in there though.

Hi Glenn, As far as I know, all Elfs & Hornets were sold with a wooden boot shelf covered in carpet to conceal the spare wheel / battery area of the boot thus giving a smooth slightly raised ( by about 4 inches ) new boot floor. This wooden shelf sat on two metal supports located on each side just inside the boot & also slipped into two metal double brackets which were riveted to the rear bulkhead behind the rear seat. Hope this helps.... David2010.

Thanks for this you have confirmed what I have thought and just realised, I wish I could post a pic to show you but one looks like its for the right side and is shaped around the wheel arch and the left one is a short stubby one because of the tank.

Well I don't have the boot board at all in the car just found these bits and at first glance thought they were bits of scrap metal. I take it these items like you say are attached to a standard mini board (slightly longer i know) to give you the shape on the sides around well arch etc.
